After a very much emotionally fulfilling trip to Vienna, I received some bad news from NUS. Well one of them is not official yet but I found out anyway. Maybe I am too overwhelmed by my happiness built in Vienna but surprisingly I feel quite indifferent about it.
1. Lucky enough, I got a place to stay on Campus. What I did not expect, is that I did not get back to my Hall.
Well I guess I can tell what's happening. Who wants a final year student who is highly unlikely to contribute to the hall anyway rite? Too bad they want to think it that way. I am not going to appeal anymore. I am tired of the system.
2. I did not get the Honours Year supervisor I have asked.
Haha this one not surprising la. If CAP is really that important I really have nothing to say. Only have ownself to blame for not having a good CAP lor.
But I still think results are not everything. A fantastic result does not necessarily imply good attitude. But I guess in the real and cruel world, it at least serves as a first impression and as a reference for people to make their choices.
Welcome to the Real World.
